... I can't stand the feeling of cotton balls in my hands. I don't know why; it just bothers me soo much haha. I hate them. Similarly, I cannot handle how it feels to chew on string. Yuck lol. Anyone else odd like this? :)

    She's trying to overcome the cottonball in her hands sensation by chewing on string. A common technique.

    I so agree! They're kind of squeaky.. I'm hoping you know what I mean
    And with the string thing, I remember years ago in school, a friend of mine used to chew on her school jumper sleeves, same kind of thing right? Okay maybe not.. :sick:

    Calm down :) ... It's not like I said string-chewing is a national sport. I've seen people chewing on their hoodie strings, and every time I do, it makes me cringe. I am glad I'm not the only one who thinks this, though. :)

    I can add to the thread that as a younger person, I had plenty of these. Yes, cotton, paper towel, etc. My daughters have a few now. You get less sensitive to goose bumpy things as you get older. Sigh. It's a bit of a metaphor.

    I shudder whenever I think about the feeling of cotton or tissues (like thick kleenex tissues) between my teeth, particularly between my molars. Either the idea of chewing it, or the dentist shoving cotton in my mouth...


    UGH, I'm getting goosebumps just writing this!!!


    Been this way since I was a kid, still don't know why. Maybe a traumatic orthodontist visit, I remember they had to break my upper jaw in half and force it apart before they put braces on me. I have no memory of the pain, but it had to have been excrutiating (based on what I remember *afterwards* it was agony then too) so I think I blocked out the experience. I don't t believe they knocked me out for it, no memory of feeling drugged or groggy or waking up confused, etc. I was only 9 or 10 years old. Matches up, roughly, with the sudden onset of my cotton-ball fear.
